No suction i have a hoover supreme wind tunnel vac and its relatively new and the suction, well......sucks. It wont pick anything up! I am extremely frustrated! I picked up a ball of fuzz off the carpet and held it under the vacuum and it still wouldn't **** it up. I then shoved the fuzz up INTO the vacuum. It fell right back out. I may as well not even vacuum. Please help!

Check the filter above the dirt tank. If you take out the dirt cup and look where in slides into the machine, there is a filter that is probably dirty. It can be cleaned or replaced ...

No suction My Hoover Wind Tunnel vacuum runs but there is no suction. The last two or three times I used it, it shut itself off after having a burning smell. When I unplug it for the suggested 30 minutes, the motor will run again but no suction. What is wrong?? Should I just buy a nve one? This one is 8 years old.

Sounds like your motor bearings are going bad. This is generally indicated by the motor overheating, and the heat transferring out through the motor pulley, which is where the belt attaches. So, your machine is overheating, melting the belt, and then ...

Lost suction - Hoover Wind Tunnel S3630

You have a clog. The "bag full" indicator is nothing but a vacuum gauge, and impeding the airflow will cause a false indication of a full bag.\015\012Clear your hoses and the air pathways behind the brushroll, and you will be back in business. ...

I forgot to replace the vacuum cleaning bag in my Hoover Wind Tunnel Supreme Mach 3.3! It overheated and turned off. I spent all afternoon cleaning the dirt out of the inside, filters, etc. It still overheats when used over 1 minute. Do I need to buy a new vacuum?

The most obvious and first fix would be to clean the filter. The noise is the tip-off. If your vacuum is noisier than usual the most common issue is a clogged filter, hose or bag. Check all of these. UNPLUGGED, use a straightened wire coat hanger to ...

On our new carpet (which is not that thick but thicker than the old) I can't set the carpet thickness high enough. The suction really grabs the carpet and bogs down my self-propelled wind-tunnel Hoover. I then have to push down on the handle to tilt the front up. The thickness setting is as high as it will go. Is there some way that I can further adjust this. The machine is about eight years old.
